Coming from the qualifications, Diane Parry (118th) outperformed Diana Shnaider, 15th in the world (6-4, 6-1) and will have a good blow to play at 3e round. But the Boulonnaise keeps her head cold.
The 22 -year -old Frenchwoman offers herself Diana Shnaider, seeded 12. An additional nice surprise for the Habs. The interested party equals her best result on the London lawn (2022, defeat against Ons Jabeur). Parry started badly. She found herself carried out 4-2 in the first set. But then she overthrowed everything by chaining the games: “We had to make a very serious and very solid match and I am happy to have managed to do it. It’s a little weird because I had the impression that she was not too in it. I used my slice to the maximum and wisely. ” It is only the second time in her young career that she has dominated a top 20, it is true not on her plate this Wednesday. Has she signed one of the most beautiful victories in her career? “I’m not going to place it in number one. She will be hard to classify since I do not feel like I had an exceptional match and my opponent was not exceptional either. ”
In any case, this success has a particular flavor: “It is coming back after difficult months (a knee injury), To chain five good games, to be in the third round. I will come back to the top 100 (she was 48e A few months ago, note). I’m not sure I’m very well ranked in the 100, so I’ll have to move my buttocks a bit. ” And a presence in 8e From finals in a big slam, which would be a first for her, would particularly help her. Against the British Sonay Kartal (51st), Parry will have a real blow to play on Friday: “I don’t know her at all. I have seen her for a bit a bit on the circuit, but I will have to watch a little bit of her way of playing and the matches she was able to make on lawn. ”
